Interview
It was easy, the interviewers were very nice and forgiving in nature. Some People were grilled heavily on their projects, though. I think they put more emphasis on Communication skills than Technical Expertise, atleast at entry level.
Pretty smooth and well conducted. Asked extra questions to help their understanding. Ensure you know the company and their values well as it is a big part of interview. Overall, it was of medium difficulty, some questions did catch me out.
